Popis:	Study of the operational parameters of mechanical pressing of almonds of Vitellaria paradoxa Gaertn C.F. (shea tree). Sheabutter is one of the most difficult oleaginous resources to extract by traditional way. In Burkina Faso, where production of sheanuts is estimated at 70000 tons per year, presses manufactured locally are used to improve the production. In order to optimize the handcraft process of sheabutter production, extraction parameters of Vitellaria paradoxa Gaertn C.F. were studied under laboratory controlled conditions on 3 g samples of ground almonds using a uni-axial compression test machine specifically instrumented for this purpose. The studied operational parameters were the grinding (unsieved sample 0.5 mm
